I also enjoyed the companion song you posted. If you get a chance, try listening to a band called ISIS. Here&#39;s a link to a song called &#39;The Other&#39; off of their album &#39;Oceanic&#39;.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxE1auGq_kEZacharyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12124783407011466114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21385664.post-83589994758171528682011-01-12T06:03:17.073-05:002011-01-12T06:03:17.073-05:00amazing, want to read moreamazing, want to read moreDoingKermithttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08429891209769981678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21385664.post-24006279937841386372011-01-06T21:34:38.518-05:002011-01-06T21:34:38.518-05:00i love uzumaki and i never read any of his other w...i love uzumaki and i never read any of his other work. this entry has prompted me to do so!!jojojojojohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13764132168376403749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21385664.post-24939216458873786842010-12-18T07:45:44.513-05:002010-12-18T07:45:44.513-05:00Intense; loved it!Intense; loved it!On Paperhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03019127187726358904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21385664.post-16921778570394085802010-12-15T15:09:41.392-05:002010-12-15T15:09:41.392-05:00Very imaginative!

It&#39;s short and you will love it. Do a google search and READ IT. Not gory, but good luck forgetting it in the dead of night.<br /><br />If you read nothing else, read this.<br /><br />&quot;Gyo&quot;<br /><br />Imagine scary sea monsters. Now imagine them with metal legs sprinting towards you, leaving the sea en masse. It will do to you what Jaws did the first time you watched it. Enjoy your next beach vacation.<br /><br />&quot;Uzumaki&quot; (Spiral)<br /><br />Much longer series about the prevalence of spirals in a small Japanese town. If you have the time, every second is worth it. One of the most haunting reads I&#39;ve ever experienced- but be warned. There are some really terrifying images, I don&#39;t know how this guy sleeps at night.<br /><br /><br />There you go, a short list of must reads from one of Japan&#39;s greatest horror mangakas. Enjoy.Dariushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07532960602616696824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21385664.post-30796720950065300652010-12-08T03:27:44.355-05:002010-12-08T03:27:44.355-05:00this is an awesome comicthis is an awesome comicfsrlismhttp://www.facebook.com/PossessedRemainsnoreply@blogger.com
